Morning.

Well, yes it was mild yesterday and overnight and we got rained on. Not the best news. The resort is reporting light rain on the lower part of the mountain and just cloudy up top (with apparently poor visibility up there).

But the good news though is that it should be getting colder this morning and all being well we might even get some snow.

Clearer weather expected again tomorrow and for the next decent snowfall we should perhaps look to around Thursday.
